Sudden surprise

[knightshadow]

How many of you have had a similiar situation:

I'm preparing to leave my job and head off to a new one. So during this my last week, I'm cleaning out my desk of many years. In the back file of a drawer I come upon a number of letters from a girl friend that I use to go out with. Wow.....the memories and the sorrow I felt re-reading them. She had written them at a time when we were no longer going out. She had broken up with me, and she had realized her mistake, yet I was already involved with another woman. She had wanted to know if there was a chance that there might have been something still between us. I had told her that I still cared deeply for her, but that was then and I had moved on. Now reading those letters, I can still feel that deep pain. All those years ago, and I still feel something for her.

Just wanted to know how many have had a missing memento of a past lover that surprisingly showed up, and made you hurt again deep inside.

I use to cry every time I heard a certain song on the radio that a guy I went out with for over a year had said was our song.

That had to have been bad.....and it probably seemed like it was on every channel too

I tell you... I can drink Canadian Mist to this day and it always reminds me of my ex-husband. There are some things that I do miss about him. Especially, if I compare my current relationship with that one. It was so much less complicated. I long for that sometimes. But there are also many things about him that I do not miss. Like his alcoholism and drug addiction. I don't miss the fact that I was so much more mature than him, also. But I do think of him often... *sigh*

I can truthfully say my ex doesn't stir anything in me.....though I thank god each day for the beautiful daughter we had.....so I suppose there is one thing....

*Bumping* because I think this needs second glance by some.

I cannot watch any re-runs of the Bozo the clown show without having this wonderful feeling of relief and calm at knowing that my ex-husband is about as ex as an ex can be short of being dead.

well....here's hoping that you never find any missing mementos.....then again....they might come in useful if you ever feel the need to throw something
